"I am a International Tour Director from Britain. I have just gotten my schedule and will be giving the heads up for the Old Town Trolley Tours which I hope all my pax will be taking while on their stay in Boston. I was given passes to go onto the other trolleys and NO COMPARISON to yours. Everyone is great and I have gotten to know most of the drivers from years past. They are the best and have the best tour. Looking forward in seeing everyone again this year. Cheers" - B.G. |

 "My father and I visited "bahstin" for the first time in the spring and were lucky enough to have Crackerjack as a guide. He was hilarious, engaging, energetic and really made us feel at home (even though we're Yankees fans!). I enjoyed it so much that I took my wife back to Boston last month for her first time. I told her about his tour, and said that if our tour guide was half as awesome as CJ, that we'd have a great time. Who'd have thought, out of all the times to board, all the possible stops, and all the driver shift changes that we got CJ FIRST TIME. In any case we stayed onboard the whole loop before getting off and exploring and he really made our vacation a great experience. Really nice guy; we even got a picture with him (although he wouldn't wear the Yankees cap!) and I'll be sure to highly recommend the service to everyone around town. PLEASE GIVE HIM A HUGE RAISE HE DESERVES IT!" J. and S. G. - Marlton, NJ |

"I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you how much my wife and I enjoyed our trip to boston and our ride with you. It was very informative and because of how nice and good the service and drivers where in Boston, I will be looking for your service in all other cities I go to. Two of the drivers I really liked was Buck and Friday. Thank you again for a very nice service." - B., Sparta, NJ |

"Hello, My four sisters and I spent a 4-day weekend in Boston and happened upon the Old Town trolley tour. I'm writing to express my gratitude that we ended up on "CrackerJack's" trolley and had a total riot. What a perfect tour guide for a fun loving group! It was highly informative but most importantly hilarious and fun. Just wanted to say thanks again to Crackerjack!" - M.G., New York |

"I was in the Boston area. I researched the different trolley tours before I arrived and I had absolutely no hesitation with choosing Old Town Trolley. While there, I had the pleasure of riding the trolley Saturday and Sunday. Saturday - Nick was our tour guide, and he was excellent!... Nick made the ride VERY worth while. I completely enjoyed it! On Sunday - we started out with Peppermint Patty and she was just as great. She is very knowledgeable of the history of Boston. We ended our ride with her at the Boston Public Garden and later got back on at the original Cheers with Sean. Sean, too, was great! We rode with him back to stop one. I love the fact that all the tour guides have different facts they share with us that we maybe didn't hear the first time around. I learned so much about the historic and present things going on in the city. There was not enough time to stop and see everything - which means there will have to be a next time! No doubt in my mind I would choose Old Town Trolley again! I will definitely recommend everyone visiting the area to do this tour! Thank you for an excellent time!!" - H.M. |

"I was skeptical and have never done the hop on and off trolley stuff when I visit various cities but I am a convert. It was the best value in Boston and my mother and I loved our guides (Brownie, who took us from our hotel to the wharf, Scout and her wooden nickels she kept passing out as prizes, and Whit who was new but had his shtick down well). I went to yelp and gave you 5 stars and will recommend to anyone I know going to Boston. I tipped these drivers well and I don't know if they get bonuses for doing a great job, but they should. They were a real highlight for my mom and since she loved the trip so much, that made it all the more special for me... never had to wait more than a few minutes for a trolley... whew!" - K.L, Chicago, IL |

"Recently, my family and I visited Boston for our first time and decided to take a tour of the city on Old Town Trolley. Our tour guide was Crackerjack. I must say that Crackerjack certainly lived up to his name. His tour was top-notch, outstanding and every other superlative I can think of. He was so knowledgeable and enthused about his tour that it rubbed off on all of us, making our stay in the city so much more enjoyable. As a volunteer tour guide myself (Pima Air and Space Museum), I know that Crackerjack must have worked hard to develop such a remarkable presentation. My hat is off to him and to your company. From my family and myself ... THANKS!!!!!" - V.S, Tucson, AZ |

"My friends, husband and I were on the Trolley with Billy last week and had the BEST tour! Having been an American History teacher for 30 years, I was truly fascinated with Billy's knowledge and experience with the tour! Even my friends who are not especially interested in History, thought that Billy was the greatest tour guide they had ever had." - C.L., Waxahachie, TX |

"We have just taken a trolley tour of Boston with a group of 7 people. I just wanted to let you know that your service is excellent and very professional as well as informative and fun. I am very impressed with your company and want to compliment you for this service. Our favorite conductor was Marc; although we only were fortunate to have him for a short ride before changing trolleys. He was just great! Go Marc! Also, I would like to thank Jean for her communication with me as I planned this trip. Jean, you were very helpful. I am a graduate of Boston University, so one would think I know the city! Well... I saw many sites that I had not ventured into when I was a student. It was nostalgic and a lot of fun!" - J.J., Tampa, FL |

"I have just arrived back in England after spending a wonderful week in Boston. One of the many highlights was the trolley tour we took on the first day. The sights were made even more special by the entertaining, informative and humorous commentary from our guide,'Paffy'. Please thank him, and I will look forward to visiting Boston again and taking a trolley tour." - D.E. |

In fact, we had such a great time listening to her that we didn't get off at the stops we had planned on. Just wanted to let you know that you made our Boston trip more enjoyable. Thank you. This was the second time we took an Old Town Trolley and if there is one in the next city we vacation, we will be on it! " - D.M., Michigan |

"We took the Old Town Trolley Tour with Paul from Pennsylvania. It was one of the best tours I have ever taken. Paul was hilarious, entertaining, informative, and very welcoming to everyone aboard. He had us all laughing. I work for the Visitor Center in Santa Barbara, CA, so I have high expectations of tours. Your tour and tour guide greatly exceeded them! Thanks for a wonderful memory of Boston!" - S.R., Goleta, CA |

"Your tour of the city is everything you promise. All your drivers and staff are very well trained and versed in the system. They are very helpful which makes it easy for us out of towners. The tour was extremely well done. It allowed us to take the Harbor Cruise and walk a considerable amount of the Freedom Trail in the limited day we had in Boston. We will recommend you to anyone who we know that is heading your way. Thanks again." - T.Z., Mission Viejo, CA |

His extensive knowledge of local history, as well as his enthusiasm for it, made the tour both exciting and interesting. Thanks for an amazing experience!" - J.M., Peabody, MA |

We were able to see and do so much more because of the trolley. We were also pleased to see that you have wheelchair accessible options, as next time we will be traveling with a wheelchair user. We have already recommended you to several people. Old Town Trolley Tours really made our whole trip!" - S.S., Bordentown, NJ |

“What a great and memorable method of seeing the entire city when you only have a day to devote to it! A true capsulated version of everything Boston has to offer wrapped up in a rollicking trolley ride narrated by a funny, entertaining tour guide! You literally feel as though you’ve stepped inside a giant history book and re-lived it, sound effects and all!!! One excellent advantage is the ability to hop on-hop off throughout the day!!!” - L.D. Cedar Hill, TX |

extremely knowledgeable on the sites and history of the city
and pointed out interests that I, personally, didn’t
see in the other brochures. The information he passed on
during our ride has sparked a real interest in returning
to your beautiful city to take in the sights. I will definitely
repeat the trolley tour!!” - J.V. Fredericksburg, VA |

“Finally had the opportunity to experience your product!! I was extremely impressed with the ease of ticket purchase on the web. We took the train into Boston and upon arrival – there you were!! Excellent way to tour Boston for the first time visitor!! Both drivers were very well versed and informative. Both had an excellent sense of humor and combined with their historic knowledge – it was the icing on the cake! Old Town Trolley is the only way to experience the city when time is short and destination knowledge is nil!!!” - G.P. Downers Grove, IL |

We are so glad we had your tickets, for without them I don’t see how we could have learned so much. The ride was so convenient to our hotel and took us around the whole city. Everyplace I wanted to see was part of the tour. For sure we will do this again…Thank you so much for a great weekend getaway, and 1st anniversary for me and my husband.” - D.L. Casco, ME |

"I wanted to take a moment to commend one of your trolley drivers. My wife and I have taken your tour in San Diego in the past and that positive experience led us to take the Boston Trolley tour when we were in town. Though we hopped on and off the trolley many times throughout the day, the hands down highlight of the on-trolley experience was having Nate for a guide. Nate took us from the U.S.S. Constitution stop until we got off a few stops down the way. He was hysterical and informative at the same time. Every time we got back on the trolley the rest of the day we were hoping it would be him again. We would have like to take the entire loop with him first, then do our hopping thereafter. Do whatever it takes to hold on to Nate, he is an asset and serves your company well." J.L., Palmdale, CA |

I even learned things I had no clue about! So thank you for an amazing day that will not soon be forgotten! " - L.S., Orlando, FL |

"My husband and I were in Boston on a Royal Caribbean Cruise and booked a trolley tour in Boston. Much to our dismay we were there on June 19th the day of the duck parade for the Celtics. I thought we wouldn't get to see very much but thanks to our tour operator Mr. Ballgame and our shuttle trolley operator "Sue", we got a wonderful tour and it was amazing how they maneuvered around the traffic. I'm telling every one I know what a wonderful tour this is and look forward to doing it again when we revisit Boston. The operators were amazing! Nice, knowledgeable, and full of personality. They are certainly an asset to Boston and your organization." - G.C., Virginia Beach, VA

I wanted to let you know that we all had a fabulous time. My mom added my 11-year-old niece at the last minute and although you were booked you were so helpful and thankfully a spot opened up just in time. She really wanted to do something special for my birthday and so thanks in great part to your staff and your great tour." - J.S., Forestdale, MA |

"We bought the Salem package yesterday and went to Salem. I did not get the names of the guides, but there were only 2 trolleys running and we had interaction with both. I cannot say enough about how helpful they all were. We were stuck in a storm and the ferry was not running when we wanted to come back. They called to see if it was... they took us as close to the train station as they could get us and were in general VERY helpful. Thank you so much for your crew and their willingness to help out in unusual situations. My granddaughter goes to Harvard so I will be back in your fair city from time to time and will definitely try some of your other packages. I will also recommend you to anyone I know is coming to Boston You are the best!!!! Thank you." - M.L., Lake Oswego, OR |

Thanks for making our first trip to Boston so memorable!" - S.G. |
